After someone broke through the Ultimate Imperial Pass, the four great powers-the Dao Palace, Phoenix Nest, God Organization, and Underworld-emerged, throwing the entire universe into turmoil.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Court, slightly inferior to those four great powers, was also steadily rising and rapidly expanding its territory.
The Heavenly Court of this age was the power Ye Fan had founded. Although it was now immensely powerful, it still fell short of the Dao Palace, Phoenix Nest, and the other two great powers, mainly because it lacked an unparalleled expert at the pinnacle of the Quasi-Emperor Realm to hold the fort.
However, with Xiao Nannan, the Dao Fruit of the Ruthless Great Emperor, there, even Paths-to-Emperor such as the Undying Heavenly Empress were deeply wary and dared not move rashly against Ye Fan's Heavenly Court.
After all, the Emperor Lord of the Divine Court, once a peak Quasi-Emperor, had wanted to strike at the Heavenly Court, only to be frightened into fleeing in utter disarray by Xiao Nannan, further shattering his Dao Heart.
Thus, the Heavenly Court currently lacked the strength to advance, but had no trouble defending itself!
The Purple Mansion, where Lu Chen resided, was the fifth great power. Yet because he had no desire to contend for supremacy, it kept to its own corner and did not join the chaotic fighting.
By slaying the Emperor Lord, a Path-to-Emperor, he had already proven that his strength had reached that level. This made peak Quasi-Emperors such as the Undying Heavenly Empress and the Woodcutter wary, unwilling to provoke him lightly.
Lu Chen had little desire to intervene in the turbulent situation. As an outsider who had transmigrated into this world, he possessed the advantage of "foreknowledge" and could see the road ahead clearly.
What did factions or struggles for supremacy matter?
